Illuminating Shadows


The photo is of my three avocado pits which are growing nicely into plants on the windowsill.  When the morning sun comes through it casts wonderful shadows on the sheer curtains.
 I very much enjoy the play of light on objects...it's magical how a any scene can be transformed with a beam of light.

It reminds me  that there is so much more present which we don't always see, and that how we shine our inner light on any experience will determine how deeply its shadows form.  So many shadows try to grab our attention these days in countless ways, but we can adjust the light to a soft glow that illuminates our experience and allows us to remember what is of substance and what is the changing shape of passing experiences.  My heart is full of compassion for those who are suffering today all over the world.  I pray for clear vision; that each of us can feel the good that is the foundation that sustains us and see the way to bringing that good into the world.  Don't let the shadows fool you. Let us allow the Light to comfort our hearts with love and show us the way forward together.
